Carbon Balls,
they are mostly in place of Bearing Steel Balls where expected wear
and tear is less. They are produced using extremely sophisticated
and specialized machines.
Starting from the
rigorous testing of the wire for all necessary parameters, balls are
produced in specially designed machines called Header, Flasher,
Grinder and Lapper. Heat treatment is one of the most critical
operations which gives required strength & hardness. It makes
the balls tough and wear resistant. Apart from intermediate vigil at
all operations, for all quality parameters, finished products are
also tested with extremely sophisticated equipments to ensure right
quality of Balco Balls.

Chrome Steel 52100
is a universal material for many applications. Chrome steel ballshave
an excellent surface quality and high load bearing. BALCO
INNDUSTRIES
produces balls that through statistical process control, assures
tolerance accuracy, fine surface finish and a consistent high quality. Our
chrome steel balls are available in fractional, decimal and millimeter
sizes.

Chrome steel is high-carbon-high-chromium-steel; actually an alloy steel
which owes its enhanced properties to the presence of larger proportions
of special alloying elements such as chromium, manganese and silicon
than are ordinarily present in carbon steel.

For better performance and life in most of the above applications we
manufacture steel ball (round / spherical) in chrome steel instead of
ordinary carbon steel. These balls have better corrosion resistance, harden ability
and toughness. These can be thorough hardened (upto the
core) to 58-63 HRc instead of just case hardened or carbonized.
